Sir R. Heaton Rhodes and his niece, Mrs. P. Woodhouse, some time ago offered to present a new altar for the Maori Church at Onuku, Akaroa, which was restored during the Akaroa Centennial celcbrartious. Sir Heaton Rhodes has written to the secretary 7 of the ehureii fund, Mr. L. J. Vangioni, submitting designs of Maori work for the altar. He states that it is proposed to use taniko work, similar to that at the church at Oninemutu, which is closely woven and does not collect dust as the tiikutuku work does. Mr. Tai Mitchell bars been-written to asking if he can have the altar made.
